Many hugs. I agree with the poster who suggested fluids. See if you can go in for some rehydration. Chemo sucks in so many ways and you are so brave to do this. Is there possibly a forum like this for cancer patients? I think anger is a good emotion to feel. It's only right to be pissed that this asshole cancer is taking so much away from you. It's ok to feel however you want to and anyone who says otherwise can fuck off. <3 vent away here as much as you need to. We are here.

Hugs his! Cancer is stupid. Would adding lemon or flavorings to your water help? I really like the true lime packets in black cherry limeade. I have been keeping you in my good thoughts.
Cancer fucking sucks. I am so glad you have this safe space to get out what you are feeling. While those around you are doing the best they can, you need this place to unload.
Please keep venting to us, V. We want to hear the best and the worst and everything in between. I'm so sorry that this is your reality and I can only hope that you see improvements in the side effects and your ability to regain some independence.
I'm so sorry. Dafuq kind of cancer support group has no one talking about feeling mad or sad???
When my MIL was doing chemo she ate a lot of pastry because it was the only thing that tasted okay. Donuts, cookies, danishes. She had a hard time with water so she drank a lot of juice. Sometimes she could force down a Boost so we kept a lot of those on hand too.
